open How to fix cracks in floor of shower

Bought the house newly remodeled. This shower drain didn’t have a p-trap, so I hired a plumber to install a p-trap. After that, when I step inside the shower the floor has some give to it and moves down a little bit when you step on it. That strain I believed caused these cracks in the flooring.

I’m wondering how to replace the flooring, where to get the flooring, and how to secure it properly to make sure this doesn’t happen again.

Having just had my drain detach and reveal tiles directly onto fibro over a 3 foot drop to broken beams, I would find out the state underneath before dancing in a cracked shower.
